“I have ambition and over the next few months something has to change. I will admit one thing, as I don’t believe the last year has been a waste of time, because Roma goalkeeping coach Marco Savorani is very good.

“I might not have played over the last 12 months, but I have improved, I am certain of that. I know that I am second choice and Roma have Alisson, one of the best goalkeepers in the world, but I have to play.

“At the end of the season, I’ll talk to the directors and my agent to say I want to play more regularly, regardless of where I am. Monchi knows that and he tells me that Alisson is too good, he can’t be left out. I understand that, it’s true, but I can’t accept this situation.”

Skorupski still had some remarkable experiences this season, including being on the bench for the 3-0 Champions League quarter-final over Barcelona.

“It was crazy. I’ll always remember Daniele De Rossi’s locker room speech and we always scream something before a game, but that time it was special.

“I also remember Francesco Totti still seemed like one of us at the end of the game. He cried with joy. I have no doubts, he is more important in Rome than the Pope.”
